CIVIL RIGHTS - Marriage EqualitySJR13, sponsored by Sen. Tick Segerblom, repeals existing definition in Nevada Constitution defining marriage as between one man and one woman and requires recognition of all marriages in this state regardless of gender. The Senate floor session will be remembered for several senatorsâ raw and emotional testimony, none more than Sen. Atkinsonâs for publicly revealing that he is gay. The bill must come back to the Legislature in 2015 for its required second consideration (and passage) before being put to the people for a final vote. Returns to Legislature in 2015
